Thematic series on Agent-based Modeling and Multiagent Systems
Complex Adaptive Systems Modeling?welcomes submissions to the new Thematic
series on?Agent-based Modeling and Multiagent Systems.
The idea of modeling complex systems using agents or individuals occupies a
very important and changing role in different areas of science, technology,
medicine and humanities. Agents and Agent-based Modeling is now being used
to model cells, bacteria, communication networks, people, software agents,
animals, plants and forests. This thematic series will focus on
applications, methods, case studies or reviews from any discipline using
agents or individuals to model the system.
This special issue is reserved for applications, methods, case studies or
reviews from any discipline using agents or individuals to model the system
including documenting successful agent-based modeling methodologies and
application case studies in areas including, but not limited to, the
following:
o Life sciences such as Ecology , Biology, Biochemistry, Cancer, and
Epidemiology
o Social Sciences
o Reconfigurable energy
o Economics
o Communication networks and environments including large-scale wireless
sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, and the Internet of Things
o Cloud computing
o Verification, validation, and accreditation of agent-based models
o Methods for development and analysis of agent-based models
o Agent-based Social Simulation
o Agent-based Simulation of Software Multi-agent Systems
o Agent-directed Simulation
o Formal Specification Frameworks for Agents
Submission instructions:
Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have carefully read
the?Instructions for Authors?for?Complex Adaptive Systems Modeling. The
complete manuscript should be submitted through the?Complex Adaptive Systems
Modeling?submission system. To ensure that you submit to the correct
thematic series please select the appropriate section in the drop-down menu
upon submission. In addition, indicate within your cover letter that you
wish your manuscript to be considered as part of the Thematic series
on?Agent-based Modeling and Multiagent Systems. All submissions will undergo
rigorous peer review and accepted articles will be published in a
cross-journal collection.
Deadline for submissions:?November 15, 2014
Lead guest editor:?Muaz Niazi, COMSATS Institute of IT, Pakistan
Guest editor:?Shah Jamal Alam, Habib University, Pakistan
Submissions will also benefit from the usual benefits of open access
publication:
o Rapid publication: Online submission, electronic peer review and
production make the process of publishing your article simple and efficient
o High visibility and international readership in your field: Open access
publication?ensures high visibility and maximum exposure for your work -
anyone with online access can read your article
o No space constraints: Publishing online means unlimited space for figures,
extensive data and video footage
o Authors retain copyright, licensing the article under a Creative Commons

CALL FOR PAPERS

********************************************
Extended submission deadline: 2 November 2014
(see below for updated schedule)
********************************************

Elsevier - Computer Communications Journal
Special Issue on
Online Social Networks
http://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-communications/call-for-papers/special-issue-on-online-social-networks1/

Online Social Networks are a massively successful phenomenon, used by
billions of users to interact. Nowadays they are key platforms for,
among others, content dissemination, social and professional networking,
recommendation, scouting, alerting, and political campaigns. The
research interest in OSNs is multi-faceted, and exploits an unmatched
source of large-scale data about the human behavior. It spans a number
of disciplines, across numerous fields in and beyond computer science,
all the way up to the analysis of human social relationships and how
they evolve and mature over time. Moreover, the pervasive presence of
users' mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) has opened new avenues in the
design of mobile social networking services, and in the study of the
interplay between mobility and social interactions. Research in OSN is a
fertile ground also for industry, to develop innovative ideas fostering
the design of the new generation of communication platforms and their
services.

This special issue seeks contributions pushing the state of the art in
all facets of Online Social Networks highlighted above. We also
encourage original work based on an interdisciplinary research (at the
boundary between computer science and humanistic disciplines such as
sociology and anthropology) where quantitative evidence is available
demonstrating the mutual advantage of such an approach. Therefore,
purely methodological papers or papers that do not present quantitative
results with real Online or Mobile Social Networking technologies are
considered out of scope. Moreover, special attention is expected in
interpreting the proposed research results in order to shed light
towards what users may need and wish in terms of novel, practical
services and application.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Design of OSN platforms based on human behavioural models
- Analysis of OSN users' behaviour and its evolution over time
- Comparison of human social behaviour in Online and "offline" Social
Networks, and across OSNs
- Impact of Online Social Networks on human social behaviour
- Analysis of the use of social-networking sites in the urban context
- OSNs for supporting novel, social-oriented applications and services
- Mobile and Location-aware Online Social Networks
- OSN services enabled by the analysis of mobility and social behaviour
- Crowdsourcing for Online and Mobile Social Networks
- Dynamics of trends, information and opinion diffusion in OSN
- Smart recommendations and advertising in Online Social Networks
- Information extraction and search in Online Social Networks
- Privacy in management and analysis of Online and Mobile Social
Networks data
- Privacy, Security, Trust and Reputation in Online Social Networks
- Prevention of misbehaviours (spamming, phishing, ...) in Online Social
Networks
- Modelling of Online Social Networks characteristics and mechanisms
- Graph analysis applied to Online Social Networks
- Complex networks techniques applied to the investigation of OSN
- Data Mining and Machine Learning to gain novel insights on Online
Social Networks
- Novel distributed solutions for designing, supporting and operating
Online Social Networks
- Networking, computation and data infrastructure support for Online
Social Network systems
